- the present invention relates to the field of wireless communication technology, and specifically relates to a method executed by user equipment and user equipment.
- multi-USIM card devices have become increasingly popular. For example, a user installs two USIM cards on a mobile phone that supports multiple USIM cards. One USIM card is used to subscribe to private services, and the other USIM card is used to subscribe to office services.
- Existing devices that support multiple USIM cards are implemented by manufacturers and have not yet been standardized by 3GPP. As a result, different manufacturers adopt different implementation methods, and the behavior of user equipment UE is also different. In the existing implementation, if these USIM cards are registered with the network respectively (either to the same network or to two or more networks), the UE needs to receive paging from these networks.
- the UE Based on the UE's transceiver capabilities, it may One situation that exists is that when the UE receives paging from the current network, another network also initiates paging for it, or when the UE is communicating with a network, another network initiates paging for it. If the UE switches between different networks, one possible result is that the UE can no longer receive data from the current network when the UE switches to another network. This will harm network performance, for example, the network sends a paging to the UE but the UE does not receive the paging because it switches to another network, or the UE switches to another network and cannot receive the schedule of the current network.
- Some manufacturers have proposed 3GPP standardization research on the behavior of UEs with multiple USIM cards accessing networks and related networks. The benefit is that network performance can be improved based on predictable UE behavior.
- Non-Patent Document: RP-193263: New WI D: Support of Multi-SIM devices in Rel-17 One of the goals of this work item is to define a mechanism for a UE to notify Network A when it leaves Network A, where Network A is NR, Network B is LTE or NR, and the UE is Single-Rx/Single-Tx or UE dual receive and single transmit (Dual-Rx/Single-Tx).
- the object of the present invention is to provide a method that can avoid activating the SCG corresponding to the first network when the user equipment does not prefer to activate the SCG.
- a method performed by user equipment including: when the user equipment has uplink data that needs to be transmitted through SCG DRB in the first network, determining whether a predetermined condition is met, and the predetermined condition is met.
- the conditions include that the secondary serving cell group corresponding to the SCG DRB is in an inactive state and the user equipment is in the MUSIM state; and if the predetermined condition is met, sending uplink data indication information of the SCG DRB to the first network , the uplink data indication information is used to indicate to the first network that uplink data for the SCG DRB has arrived.

- Embodiment 1 of the present disclosure is dedicated to solving the problem that a UE with at least dual-receive and dual-transmit capabilities detects that the PSCell beam of the SCG in the inactive state fails when both network A and network B are in the RRC connection state, but the UE considers that network B has priority. Relevant issues involved in sending an SCG invalidation information message to network A at a higher level to avoid network A configuring an active SCG for the UE after receiving the SCG invalidation information message.
- the UE is in dual links in network A, where the SCG is in an inactive state but is configured to perform beam failure detection and wireless link monitoring.
- the UE receives the RRC reconfiguration message from the base station, which contains the configuration information of the SCG (that is, the RRC reconfiguration message contains the secondaryCellGroup field or the mrdc-SecondaryCellGroup field), and the SCG is configured as an inactive state but needs to perform BFD and RLM (that is, SCG configuration information
- BFD and RLM that is, SCG configuration information
- the bfd-and-RLM field is included in the message and its value is set to "true").
- the UE configures the SCG according to the received RRC reconfiguration message.
- the UE When the SCG is in the inactive state and PSCell beam failure is detected, the UE initiates the SCG failure information transmission process, which specifically includes at least one of the following:
- Stop the SCG timer T304 (the SCG's T304 is executed when it is running); T304 is started when receiving the RRC reconfiguration message containing the synchronous reconfiguration of the SCG configured as inactive (start upon reception of RRCRe configuration including reconfigurationWithSync for the SCG not indicated as deactivated in the NR message containing the RRCReconfiguration message), stops when random access is successfully completed on the SpCell or the SCG is released.
- Transmitting the SCG failure information message SCGFaulureInformation includes the following operations:
- the UE sets the content of the SCGFaulureInformation message as follows:
- the UE initiates transmission of the SCGFailureInformation message due to detecting beam failure of the PSCell and the SCG is deactivated (if the UE initates transmission of the SCGFaulureInformation message due to beam failure of the PSCell while the SCG is dectivated), then further determine whether the UE is in MUSIM state. If the UE is in the MUSIM state, the SCGFailureInformation message contains indication information that the UE is in the MUSIM state; otherwise, the SCGFailureInformation message does not contain the indication information that the UE is in the MUSIM state.
- the indication information that the UE is in the MUSIM state can be implemented through the following implementation methods:
- a new field musim is added to the SCGFailureInformation message to indicate that the UE is in the MUSIM state. Specifically, if the UE is in the MUSIM state, set the failureType field value in the SCGFailureInformation message to indicate the cause to "other" and set the failureType-v1610 in the SCGFailureInformation message to further indicate the cause to "beamFailure", and include the musim field to Indicate that the UE is in the MUSIM state or set the value of field musim to indicate that the UE is in the MUSIM state.
- the value of a field used to indicate the cause of SCG failure (such as the failureType-v1610 field) is added, and a new value is set for the field to indicate that the UE is in the MUSIM state or the UE that has SCG beam failure is in the MUSIM state.
- the SCG beam failure occurs in the MUSIM state or the UE in the MUSIM state or the SCG beam failure occurs in the UE in the MUSIM state.
- failureType-v1610 is "musim" it means that the UE is in the USIM state or it means that the UE in the MUSIM state detects the failure of the PSCell beam of the inactive SCG.
- the network may determine the state of the SCG to be reconfigured for the UE according to whether the message contains an indication indicating that the UE is in the MUSIM state. For example, if the SCG failure information message received by the network contains an indication that the UE is in the MUSIM state, the SCG reconfigured for the UE is set to the inactive state. Otherwise, the SCG can be set to the active state.
